Flawless, made with love and care. Incredible: salsa, grilled vegetables and meat, fresh made tortillas. 21 dollars for a large chicken burrito, beef taco with some rice and beans, chips and a good amount of the best salsa I’ve had in my life.
This pambazo was HUGE and delicious! 😂 I couldn’t even wait to take a picture before digging into it. The bread was perfectly toasted and it was loaded with filling and flavor. Definitely a very generous portion and super satisfying.
El Kacheton a small mom and pops in the Belmont Craigin neighborhood did not disappoint! 🇲🇽🔥 Definitely coming back!

Everything was made fresh! Quesabirrias were delicious! Menudo amazing as well. Aguas were perfect, not too sweet just right! Handmade tortillas! Will definitely be visiting again. Great atmosphere and the chef/cook is a very great humble man.
